Abstract

The general structural design and operation process of the existing electromagnetic railgun (EMRG) simulation tools are defective. Aiming to solve the problems, including functional singleness, poor extensibility and inflexibility, the EMRG exterior ballistics simulation and data analysis tool is designed and developed in this paper. Firstly, in order to realize its functions, the requirement analysis of exterior ballistics simulation and data analysis is presented and the overall structural design and operation process of this tool are obtained. Secondly, this comprehensive tool is developed by Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, and based on the modularization theory, the tool realizes exterior ballistics simulation according to the six-DOF model, applications in various data analysis methods and report generation, etc. Finally, the application case shows that the tool can meet the requirement of the simulation and data analysis of the EMRG exterior ballistics and it is easy to operate. Therefore, the tool has significance to the study of the EMRG exterior ballistics.
